Online Payment on Shopify in Morocco
Shopify Payments is not available in Morocco, but ChariBaaS closes the gap with an official Shopify plugin that accepts CMI cards, Visa, Mastercard, Maroc Pay and wallets directly in the native checkout. 5-minute install, native MAD settlement, free sandbox.
What is it?
Shopify is the world's #1 e-commerce platform, powering over 4 million stores in 175 countries. In Morocco, Shopify is increasingly adopted by modern merchants for its simplicity, professional themes and rich app ecosystem.
The problem: Shopify Payments, the native payment solution, is not available in Morocco in 2026. To accept online payments on Shopify in Morocco, you must integrate a third-party payment gateway certified by Shopify and compatible with local payment methods.
Shopify-compatible gateways in Morocco:
- ChariBaaS, official plugin, CMI + international cards + Maroc Pay, native MAD
- CMI, third-party plugin, domestic cards only
- Payzone, local cards, complex integration
- Stripe / PayPal, not available in Morocco for local settlement
Why ChariBaaS?
The ChariBaaS Shopify plugin is the most complete payment gateway for Shopify in Morocco.
Official Shopify App Store plugin. One-click install, immediate validation, automatic updates. No script copy-pasting, no theme hacking.
Every Moroccan payment method. CMI domestic cards, international Visa/Mastercard, Maroc Pay (QR), wallets, transfers. Your customers pay with whatever they have at hand.
Native MAD. Prices display in dirhams, settlements land in dirhams on your Moroccan account. No forced conversion, no FX leakage.
Built-in 3D Secure 2.0. Strong authentication aligned with Bank Al-Maghrib directives, frictionless for repeat customers thanks to adaptive risk analysis.
Free sandbox. Test the full Shopify payment flow with test cards before going live.
